Fashion retouch

[cruel.frames]

Hello,
Although the post is a bit old, I decided to train my skills and played a bit with this picture. Actually, a bit too much. Having in mind the "fashion" word, I decided to try changing not only her skin, but also other features and I guess I did it too much, because she looks now like another person :-)

What do you think?

I can post the original size, if someone wants to see it.

Cheers,
Nikolay

i've been having a go at this retouch but would like to know how to get the hair silky smooth like in this shot, and it wasn't perfect before the retouch, if you go to his site you can see the before shot, anyone? thanx

First post! First touchup for this site! Image dimensions preserved, so you can overlap this image on top of the original (set them on two different layers) and see the changes I have made.

Best so far. Great job. The outline of the nostril was lost though. Very inspiring.
